The Week of Fred Wilpon and David Einhorn

This week in Mets-ownership news can be divided into two parts: There's the part in which the current owner, Fred Wilpon, said some ill-advised — if not necessarily untrue — things about his team in the pages of The New Yorker, and also revealed to Sports Illustrated that the franchise is "bleeding cash." (David Wright and Jose Reyes didn't have much to say about that New Yorker article, though Mike Pelfrey's response was mildly funny.) And then there's the part in which the team announced that it had selected David Einhorn as its "preferred partner" to enter into exclusive talks to buy a non-controlling interest in the team. But what happened this week that didn't involve someone who once dressed as Dave Kingman for Halloween?
